Augud ri, 1796. By the J'f'ph, from Liverpool, -we have received a number of London papers :—the following from the Morning Chr'oniclcof May 19, appears to be the only interejling article contained in them. LONDON, May 19. It appears that the SifTatisfaftion of the House of Representatives at the conduit of the President in not laying before them the proceedings relative to the late treaty concluded with this country, is by no means removed- They consider their condi tut.onal privileges violated by his refulai, and their refentraent of the supposed affront may have the effect to dedroy the good undei(landing between the government and legislature, aodjierhapS excite a ipirt of difeftnieni, which it will require all the wisdom and prudence of thje Prelidetit to appease. But the lad reiliition, both in its imputed cause and probable confequj-ices, is more dire&ly inte retting to this country. Since the beginning of war the complaints of America on the coriduft or ourcruifers in the Welt-Indies, have been loud and orgent; yet, whatever gnfwer may have been made to the remonstrances of the United States, the continuance of the injustice augurs no disposition fairly and completely to take away all appearance °f Sggreffion, and every ground of dispute. Of the madness and Impolicy of allowing a just cause of complaint to remain, which, from the date of the minds of some people in America, would be converted into the ground of a quarrel to be dread ed equally by both countries, it is unnecefiary to fay a word. To inflame their minds at such a mo ment as this, by toleiating the injuries of which they complain,' is a conduct of which no confide.- ration of annoying the power of which we are at war <?an juftify. If the sentiments of the House of Reprclentatives are hostile to the treaty, yet their refufnl to give it their authority is placed, not upon its difadvaniages and its facrifices, which declare they would have waved, but upon the at tacks made by the Britilh government npon the freedom of their commerce, and the rights of their neutrality. The reasons of the resolutions they ave passed, have been fairly and openly dated and avowed. 'It remains for the miniftera of this coun try, either to remove the oflenfible cause, or to turntfh additional arguments for their refufal. By denying that redress which, if their facts be ad nutted, the United States of America are entitled 'oc aim, the feeds of aconted mod calamitous to thjscountry, may be Town ; and the minister Ihould recollect that he tray hazard something more than 1 ' e bare ratification of a treaty, from which he ' turned so much credit, and predicted so much ad vantage. If past experience be eonfulted, this , I - V-'- -- - - - *!§EL country, we may be allured, will be indebted more , moderation of the American government, in avoiding the threatened rapture, than to the' wisdom of our own adu inillration ; for who but the prefeht ministers would, by aggrefilons fubfe quent to the treaty, thus endanger the good 08- e derftandirg which had already been so nearly inter rupted, byre;i!wing injuries not yet forgotten, and awakening-pafDons not properly allayed. abm -«r»i urn 111 m«wu— e BY THIS DAY's MAILS. c f SALEM, Augud 5. r FROM THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. e : Yesterday morning arrived from thence, Captain .

The fuccefles of the French on the Rhine, a3 well as in Italy, are confirmed ; and the wreath - that entwines the brow of Jourdan, threatens to i equal in verdure riiat which encircles the head of i Buonaparte. In all the vic'iflitudes of the French Revolution,—in all the druggies of parties for pre ', eminence—the French armies have remained infltx - ifely pure. We have ofteo mentioned, with applause, e the exhibit ions of their patriotic, and of their en - tire devotion to the cause of their country. Nor will we now be indebted to any other for in elegant eulogium on them, than one of their own country men—who forcibly felt what his heart'didated his a tongue to utter. We have procured the trarfla n tion of the following ■e EULOGY ON THE FRENCH ARMY, And we present it to our readers as a monument of brilliant imagery—of correct and chade fancy— which does honor to the translator, and places him e far above the cavils of envy, or the fq.uibs of party t politicians. , e The Eulogy pronounced at Paris, is as follows s \v HAT an immortalluftre is filed by the laurels !• of vi&ory ; especially when they are engrafted on r the scion of the beloved Olive.

How r sublime ; how truly -worthy of envy, is that noble.at tachment of the Republican, whose terrible arm de fends his habitation, his relations, his friends, and the ' : country which gave him birth. He does not echo the ' ftriek of vengeance and fury—terrible in combat, he strikes the haughty, carries terror into the battalions of ( | the enemy, and overturns squadrons : —Magnanimous art of viitory 1 Humanity meets him npon the homi cidal theatre ; where, united, they console and relieve ' the conquered f»e, and repair the affirightful mifchiefs produced by the fatality of circumstances, or by the 1 terribie laws of necessity. < Where is the citizen, who does not speak of our 1 , warriors with affedlion ?

It is this noble virtue—the aggregate of every other, without which the warrior is only an zflaffin or a vile slave— which guides the Republican soldier, and renders him terrible to the enemies of his country. Where is the citizen who can fill the heroic triim- I n pet, whose masculine force can celebrate foch i«i ---e achievements ?
